"I couldn’t be happier with the work Legacy Improvements LLC fence did! Marcus and his crew extended my existing fence and added a gate, and everything turned out amazing. The crew was professional, on time, and paid attention to every detail to make sure the new section matched perfectly with the old fence. The gate works smoothly and looks great too. The whole process was easy from start to finish, and the quality of the work really shows. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality fence work!"

"Michael was absolutely fantastic. I had him paint our entire first floor, some cabinets, laundry, bathroom and kitchen. The detail and precision was spectacular. He was a pleasure to work with, great guy and went above and beyond for us. He is a jack of all trades and I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants any kind of work done. He was very detailed and thorough, and we couldnâ t have been more pleased. Thanks Michael!"

"Joe was amazing, from his first quote to showing up. He listened to the goals I had for shoe moulding and baseboards and he quickly got measurements and quoted me with a start the next week. He was timely, communicative, and did an awesome job. I cannot recommend him enough for finish carpentry and if I have other needs in the future, heâ ll be the first person I call."

"Workers were professional and kept me informed along the way. The problem they fixed had been going on for many years and I had several other professionals review what was happening and each gave me the wrong information and never really fixed the issue. Finish Line found the problem, showed it to me and corrected it. OUTSTANDING."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

When building a house, it is customary to use 16d nails that measure 3 1/2 inches in length to construct the frame. These nails are crucial in providing the necessary support and stability for structural elements like joists and studs, which ensures a sturdy framework.

Joists do distribute their load to beams, but they don’t sit on top of the beams. Instead, home builders nail or screw the joists directly to the beams such that the end of the joist butts up against the edge of the beam. Beams can sit on other beams for support, but you’ll never see a joist sitting on top of a beam or another joist.

Installing an ornamental or decorative porch column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage.

Metal stud framing parts include the studs themselves, upper and lower tracks that act as top and bottom wall plates, various angle fasteners and clips, screws for fastening pieces togeher, metal straps, c-channel supports, and thicker steel supporting structures. Roof framing metal components include pre-fabricated trusses, heavy-gauge stud pieces, and various plates and fasteners.

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.
